Cars 2: Magen Carrar

One of the brand new cars just released this year. here is Magen Carrar from Cars 2! This is a 1:55 scale diecast car from Mattel.

Magen is part of the new 2014 sub-line called "Allinol Blowout" and is a "chase" edition car (meaning much less of these were made and are much harder to find).

In the film (screen shot above), she can be seen during the end of the Porto Corsa race scene when the cars are being blown out by the lemons. She and a few other cars off to the sidelines get upset over allinol while kicking cans and knocking down signs. Magan and others drive on the allinol sign out of frustration.

What's cool about this car is the extra accessory she comes with! Included in the package is the allinol sign (that is knocked over in the film) with skid marks all over it. I think that accessories like this are fun and think that they should be included with cars more often!

A big thanks to some good friends of mine who were able to track this down and pick it up for me. I love it!

If you're a fan of Pixar Cars, you'll be happy to know in the next few weeks there will be almost nothing but the cars from my collection being posted...so stay tuned!

Thanks so much for dropping by and be sure to check back daily to see more items from my Pixar collection.

I know you always include a screenshot from the movie when you do a die cast post...but I think I would have had a really hard time finding this one! How the heck did you remember where to look in the film to find Magen?

I do love the accessory in this one as well - but it's weird, there are so many accessories that they could have put in so many cars, and why (as a background character) did they include it with her? Was it because she was a Chase? Thinking about it quickly, are there other background characters that you can think of that come with a separate accessory like this? Hmmm, I'll have to think more myself.

This one a bit tougher to find. I didn't just automatically know where she was (I'm not that hardcore lol!). I actually googled where she is in the film and then, from the description, found her pretty easily watching the bluray carefully on my computer.

As far as the accessory...yah totally a random choice but I love it! That's exactly the Q I have is why they don't include cool things like that more often and why she was pretty much one of the only ones with a pack in. She's such an unknown background car! I know Acer is being released this year with the Wold Grand Prix camera/gun so that will be cool! I've actually hoped for that release for a while lol yes I do think about that type of stuff, ha!

And yah...I can't think of any other background character with a pack in off the top of my head but I'll let you know! It's not very common at all, even with main characters, but I hope they start doing it more!
